The Detroit Lions have been reloading this offseason and are not done yet.

After re-signing several players since free agency began, the Lions are currently in talks to bring back running back Kevin Smith, according to sources. How much Smith seeking is currently unavailable.

Smith, 25, re-signed with Detroit last November and had four starts in seven games. He finished the regular season with 72 carries for 356 yards and four touchdowns, plus had 22 receptions for 179 yards and three scores.

"In every interview that I've done, even though I'm a free agent, I've referred to the team and me as us," Smith told MLive.com last month. "I'm on the Lions roster, in my opinion, until I'm not on the Lions roster. That says it all."

Smith, who the Lions drafted out of Central Florida in the third round of the 2008 NFL draft, showed promise during a rookie season in which he gained 976 yards and scored eight touchdowns on 238 carries.

The 6-1, 217-pounder started 13 games in 2009 before suffering a season-ending injury to his left knee. He rushed for 747 yards and four touchdowns prior to his injury.

Smith was phased out of the offense with the arrival of Jahvid Best in 2010, however, Detroit decided not to make him an offer when he became a restricted free agent after that season.

If Detroit does re-sign Smith, he will join Best, who is recovering from his latest concussion, and Mikel Leshoure, who sustained a season-ending Achilles tendon injury prior to last season.
